Method for producing organosilicon compound by hydrosilylation with metallic-element-containing nanoparticles

Abstract

An organosilicon compound can be efficiently produced by using metallic element-containing nanoparticles such as a platinum element-containing nanoparticle having a solvent on surface as a catalyst of the hydrosilylation reaction of alkenes.

The invention claimed is: 
     
       1. A method of producing an organosilicon compound, comprising a reaction step of reacting an alkene with a hydrosilane in the presence of a platinum element-containing nanoparticle where a solvent selected from the group consisting of ethylene glycol, dimethylacetamide, N, N-dimethylformamide, N-methylpyrrolidone, and dimethylsulfoxide is coordinated to a platinum atom on a surface of the nanoparticle to produce an organosilicon compound,
 wherein said reaction step is performed in the presence of an iron element-containing nanoparticle where a solvent selected from the group consisting of ethylene glycol, dimethylacetamide, N, N-dimethylformamide, N-methylpyrrolidone, and dimethylsulfoxide is coordinated to an iron atom on the surface of the nanoparticle in addition to said a platinum element-containing nanoparticle, and 
 wherein said alkene is a compound represented by the following formula (A-1) or a compound represented by the following formula (A-2) and said hydrosilane is a compound represented by the following formula (B): 
 
       
         
           
           
               
               
           
         
         wherein, in the formula (A-1), R 1  is a C 1 -C 20  hydrocarbon group, 
       
       
         
           
           
               
               
           
         
         wherein, in the formula (A-2), R is a C 1 -C 19  hydrocarbon group, and 
       
       
         
           
           
               
               
           
         
         wherein, in the formula (B), R 5  is each independently a C 1 -C 20  hydrocarbon group or a C 1 -C 10  alkoxy group. 
       
     
     
       2. The method of producing an organosilicon compound according to  claim 1 , wherein the use ratio of said iron element-containing nanoparticle to said platinum element-containing nanoparticle is 0.01 to 20, where the use ratio corresponds to the amount of substance of said iron element/the amount of substance of said platinum element.
